The Department of Geography and Planning provides resources for graduate studies culminating in Master of Arts, Master of Science, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The doctoral program equips students for scholarly careers in education and investigation, while some graduates may apply their expertise in government or non-profit organizations due to increasing recognition of PhD qualifications beyond academic settings.
Geography faculty specialize in diverse research domains including: landform processes, climate studies, water systems, plant geography, soil science, environmental evaluation and sustainable resource utilization, global development, technological advancement, metropolitan and economic spatial patterns, cultural and historical landscapes, gender research, societal geography, area studies, geographical theory evolution, satellite imaging, digital mapping, spatial data analysis, GIS applications, and mathematical modeling. Geographic focus areas encompass Canada, the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean, Northwestern and Central Europe, East Asia, South Asia, and the former Soviet republics.
